Beyonce performs during the Super Bowl XLVII Halftime show in New Orleans, Louisiana in a costume designed by Rubin Singer and Proenza Schouler booties.

We never did feel all that comfortable critiquing stage wear – which is why we rarely do it. This is all just fine. as far as we’re concerned. We’re not in love with the knee-hi’s paired with booties, but otherwise, this is all semi-standard post-Madonna sexy-dom stagewear. We’re really only putting it up so we can all talk about the halftime show. We admit, we only caught glances of it in realtime, due to our Downton Abbey live-tweeting responsibilities, but it sure looked like an energetic, hair-whipping, crowd-pleasing set to us.
